Product Information

Full details

These Hilly Marathon Fresh Anklet Running Socks in Blue are designed for adult runners seeking lasting freshness and comfort during their runs. The key benefit is the permanent odour control provided by Polygiene® technology, ensuring you stay fresh mile after mile. A slight caveat is that they offer mid to low-level cushioning, which may not be sufficient for runners who prefer significant padding.

FAQs

How does Polygiene® technology work?

Polygiene® uses low concentrations of silver salt, a naturally occurring antimicrobial agent, to inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria and fungi at the cellular level, keeping the fabric fresh.

Will the Polygiene® treatment wash out?

No, the Polygiene® technology is permanently bound and integrated into the sock fibres. It is designed to last the lifetime of the garment.

What is the cushioning level of these socks?

These socks feature mid to low-level anatomical cushioning, focusing on key pressure zones like the toe and heel for comfort without adding significant bulk.

Are these socks suitable for all types of running?

Yes, they are designed for running, offering good comfort, durability, and odour control. The cushioning level is best suited for runners who prefer less padding.

What is the fibre composition of the socks?

The fibre composition is 97% Polyamide and 3% Elastane (LYCRA® SPORT).

What is the warranty or satisfaction guarantee?

Hilly offers a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. If you have any issues, please contact the retailer or Hilly directly for a replacement.

Can I use fabric softener with these socks?

It is not recommended to use fabric softeners, as they can reduce the effectiveness of the moisture-wicking and antimicrobial properties.

Troubleshooting

Socks feel too tight or constrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the size is correct, the LYCRA® SPORT fibre is designed to provide a supportive, close fit; this should become more comfortable after a few wears.

Discomfort or irritation during runs.

Verify that the socks are pulled up correctly and that there are no folds or wrinkles. Check if the flat under toe seam is positioned comfortably. Ensure the correct size has been purchased.

Odour control seems less effective over time.

Polygiene® technology is permanent. If odour is an issue, ensure proper washing as per care instructions. Excessive build-up of sweat and dirt can sometimes mask the technology's effectiveness. Regular washing should restore optimal performance.

Reduced cushioning feel.

These socks feature mid to low-level cushioning. If more cushioning is desired, consider Hilly's higher cushioning sock variants.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective and permanent odour elimination through Polygiene® technology.
  • Comfortable and secure fit thanks to LYCRA® SPORT fibre.
  • Durable construction designed for frequent running.
  • Good breathability and moisture management.
  • Minimalist design with flat seams to prevent irritation.

Cons

  • Cushioning is mid to low-level, potentially insufficient for runners needing substantial impact absorption.
  • Primarily designed for running; may not be ideal for other activities requiring different sock features.
  • Specific colour and size availability may vary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These socks require no special setup. They are designed to be worn directly. Compatibility is high, suitable for most running shoes and athletic footwear. For care, it is recommended to machine wash the socks with similar colours on a cold cycle. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the material and affect the performance of the Polygiene® technology. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry for best results and longevity. The Polygiene® treatment is permanent and will not be affected by washing.
